Re: 2018 Season Expectations and Predictions
Maybe its just me but im not worried about our offense.
QB-obviously a huge part of what we can do and maybe see us run him a little more early to ease all the new weapons we have.
RB- I feel like we have 4-5 guys that all can demand with success carrying the ball. Would love to see more creativity in the run game with the backs we have.
WR- Should be pretty solid, Cade probably will get a lot more throws his way. Interesting to see who else steps up here.
TE - 2 who are going to be playing a lot I wouldn't be surprised to see 2 tight end sets to use them both to get them envolved in the game. mix it up who is blocking and who is catching and I think Cavanaugh has big play potential in him.
Oline- Should be pretty solid IMHO. just need to develop depth there, there are only a few teams in the country this oline would struggle with, in the conference they are going to be pretty solid. Probably 2nd behind NDSU.
Defense is where the questions are again
D line- Biggest issue on the team. Can the ends generate pass rush, can the tackles stop the run game and not stuck in 3 and short all game. Who steps up in the middle of the D-line is going to be what takes this team to a playoff contender or pretender.
Linebacker- Not worried at all. Lots of great talent returning and their are always the next guys who are ready to step in to a new roll and contribute. I feel always the strength and heart of our D. With a guy like rozeboom you don't have to worry much there.
Corners- Probably pretty solid group, will need secondary to hold their own so others can help the D-line if they are struggling.
Safety's - Feel like wont see much of a drop off, just need to get more guys experience. The talent I think is there just need time on the field.
we probably win a game on the road we shouldn't, but loose a game at home we shouldn't either, probably hobo days. 8 wins is probably close to where this team finishes. 9 if they really buy in 1-0 each week, but 7 depending on injuries etc. 6 would clearly be a major disappointment.
